food IS a theme park
Disney After Hours is officially returning to Disney World in 2025! These special ticketed events allow you to explore the parks with shorter wait times, meet some of your favorite characters, and enjoy FREE snacks and drinks.
After Hours at Magic Kingdom
This popular event will return to Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and EPCOT in 2025. Along with the event, the fireworks in Magic Kingdom will drastically change beginning January 6th, 2025.
Are you a “rope drop” kind of Disney fan or a “stay late” kind of Disney fan?
Cinderella Castle at night
If you’re a night owl, there are plenty of ways to spend time in the parks after hours. From holiday parties to Extended Evening Hours — but one of our favorite ways to get our late night on is at After Hours events! They’re returning in 2025 and Magic Kingdom is promising something special!
Do you remember Disney Enchantment?
Enchantment
The fireworks show first premiered in 2021 for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary and replaced Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom. The show ran for the 18-month duration of the Anniversary celebrations, ending in early 2023 so that Happily Ever After could come back. But now, there’s a chance for you to see Disney Enchantment AGAIN!
It’s that time — we’re saying goodbye to another Disney fireworks show!
Cinderella Castle
Disney Enchantment debuted back in October 2021 to celebrate Disney World’s 50th anniversary. This show added projections along Main Street, U.S.A. and in the middle of its run, Disney added a section honoring Walt and Roy Disney. But now that the 50th anniversary celebrations have ended in Disney World, Disney Enchantment is going away!
April 3rd is going to be a HUGE day in Disney World.
Fireworks in Magic Kingdom
The 50th Anniversary has been going on for a while and it brought two new fireworks shows with it — Disney Enchantment (Magic Kingdom) and Harmonious (EPCOT). The 50th Anniversary ended on March 31st, though, and a number of things have disappeared because of the celebration’s end. On April 2nd, both Enchantment and Harmonious will have their LAST performances. But the skies won’t be dark for long!
The 50th Anniversary Celebration of Disney World is coming to a close.
Happily Ever After
The celebration officially ends on March 31st, and while we will have to say goodbye to some of the additions we loved we do have some good news about what’s to come! Happily Ever After is RETURNING to Magic Kingdom, and that means changes to fireworks dessert parties. These updated experiences are available to book now, so let’s take a look at the options.
Just when you think you know everything about Disney World, something changes!
Let’s head on over to Toy Story Land
Disney parks are constantly changing and evolving to add new attractions or restaurants like TRON Lightcycle / Run in Magic Kingdom and Roundup Rodeo BBQ in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. So what changes are coming to Disney World in April 2023? There is a LOT going on, so let’s dig into it!
We’re gearing up for some big changes soon in Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve got the grand opening of TRON Lightcycle / Run on April 4th, but before that happens, two major fireworks shows are ending their run at Disney World — Harmonious and Disney Enchantment. Disney Enchantment is being replaced by its predecessor, Happily Ever After, and it looks like Disney is getting ready for the return of the show.
We’re heading into March in Disney World, and there’s a LOT happening!
Our happy place!
2023 is going to be a busy year in general, but with changes happening for Genie+, a new restaurant opening, and the start of another EPCOT festival, March is the TIME to be in Disney World. (Unless you really want to avoid the crowds, because you know they’ll be hefty this month for Spring Break!) So if you’re visiting soon, what are the best things to do? Here’s our list!
April is a month full of change in Disney World. TRON Lightcycle / Run is opening, the 50th Anniversary celebrations will have just finished, and Rodeo Roundup BBQ will be welcoming diners.
Happily Ever After
In addition to this, we are saying goodbye to two nighttime spectaculars. But, the replacements might just be something you’re familiar with!
